from night city

"You can start anytime."

"So, countdown, three, two, one..."

Mewtwo's headband suddenly burst into a burst of white light.

My eyes were completely white and I couldn't see anything.

However, this white light comes and goes just as quickly.

When Su Xiao saw what was in front of him clearly, he was stunned.

"Is this the moon?"

Above is the vast starry sky.

The moon and soil are stepping on the feet.

Farther away, you can still vaguely glimpse the lunar city.

This is not the first time Su Xiao has experienced Mewtwo.

Mewtwo in 2077 is a bit like a combination of movies and games.

However, just as videos are divided into 4K and 360P, Mewtwo is also divided into good and bad quality.

Good quality Mewtwo, high resolution, immersive and very realistic.

The poor-quality Mewtwo has low resolution. At a glance, it is all mosaic, making it difficult to see clearly.

As for the simulation of hearing and touch, it is even worse.

The Moon Chaomeng that Su Xiao is currently in is obviously of excellent quality.

Not only did he have a clear vision, but the sun in space emitted fierce light, allowing him to feel the light and heat with overwhelming realism.

The rough feeling of your feet on the surface of the moon.

It stands to reason that you need to wear a space suit when traveling on the lunar surface.

But what Su Xiao is wearing now is still what she wore before entering Chaomeng.

But I can breathe freely.

No physical discomfort at all.

Because this is not the real moon after all.

It was simulated by Mewtwo.

……

The two walked on the moon.

Speeding on the moon rover.

Looking at the lunar city in the distance.

Finally, the two of them sat on the edge of the crater.

Lucy was very comfortable, swinging her calves.

She looked up at the huge earth.

"This is the first time I've brought someone else here."

"I am very honored."

"Aren't you curious why I brought you here?"

"Okay, why me?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because I'm too lonely and need someone to talk to, or maybe it's because you saved me."

Lucy drew up her legs and wrapped her hands around her knees: "Speaking of which, I haven't said thank you to you yet."

"you are welcome."

The air suddenly became quiet.

Next, neither of them spoke.

Lucy's face was pressed on her knees, while Su Xiao raised his head and looked up at the huge and beautiful planet in front of him - the earth.

After a while, Lucy took the initiative to break the silence.

"Su."

Lidya Su turned to look at her: "Huh?"

"I can probably guess why you are so nice to me. You want to bring me into your team, right?"

Lidya Su did not deny it: "Yes, but if you are not willing, I will not force you."

"No, I'm happy to. You are a good person. Working under you, I believe it will be better than other mercenary teams in the city."

"It's just... maybe you've also discovered that I hide a lot of secrets, so don't ask me about those, okay? I only have this request."

Lidya Su nodded: "Okay, I can promise you, if you don't want to tell me, I won't ask you, and no one else will ask you either."

"If you don't want to say it, in my eyes, you are just another ordinary person struggling to survive in this city."

"Besides, I can make you another promise."

"I know you want to settle on the moon, and I can assure you that as long as you make enough money, you can leave at any time if you want to, and I will never stop you."

"But you have to give me a postcard then, just in case I come to see you sometime."

Looking at Lidya Su’s serious look.

For some reason, Lucy felt like she was being poked by something in her heart.

Warm and soft.

She smiled, a smile that could eclipse the stars: "I think we will be a good partner."

Chapter 48 Sleep Like a Baby

Good work and rest, good diet.

No smoking, no drinking.

Get up early and go to bed early.

Have baby-like sleep.

Facing the rising sun, Su Xiao began to exercise day after day.

Despite the existence of the system, Su Xiao never missed training.

Sweating before dawn has become as natural a habit as breathing.

"morning."

Lucy came out of her bedroom room and touched her messy hair.

Lidya Su stopped and looked at her: "Did I disturb you?"

"No, this is usually the same time for me

stand up. "

Yesterday, he and Lucy stayed in Mewtwo for a long time.

By the time I exited Mewtwo, it was already night.

Since it was too late and Lucy persuaded me, I didn't go home and just stayed at Lucy's house.

"What do you want to eat? Chinese food? Japanese food? Or burgers or pizza?"

Lucy walked into the bathroom and closed the door.

A voice came from the bathroom: "How about trying Chinese food."

"Okay, let's go out to eat later. By the way, didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to join our team? After breakfast, I will take you to meet the other people in the team. Get to know each other earlier and get familiar with them earlier."

At this time, a strange call suddenly came in.

"Hey Sue, I'm Regina Jones and I'm the Middleman for the Watson District."

So far, Su Xiao has only worked with Westbrook’s Okada Wakako and Heywood’s Priest.

The middleman in Watson District, he had heard of it.

But this is the first contact.

"How did you find me? How do you know my name?"

"The middlemen in Night City are not only competitive, some are also friends." Regina on the other end of the phone paused, "The priest is full of praise for you."

Su Xiao knew the name Regina Jones.

I used to be a reporter who dared to report fairly.

But then it changed.

He became the middleman who bridged the gap between employers and mercenaries.

Although the specific situation is unclear, Su Xiao can probably guess why Regina changed.

In Night City, if journalists want to remain impartial, the survival rate is too low.

And even if you remain impartial, the role you can play is very limited.

Many times, ordinary people are not unaware of how companies are exploiting them.

It's just that they've become numb.

never mind.

Night City needs not just reporters, but...

"Nice to meet you, but I guess you didn't just call to say hello."
